A physician may recommend the SHBG (Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin) if you are experiencing general symptoms such as persistent fatigue, unexplained changes in weight or metabolism, or as part of a routine health screening. It is also used to monitor the effectiveness of ongoing medical treatments.

Preparation requirements vary depending on the specific test parameters. For most blood-based diagnostic tests, fasting for 8 to 12 hours (no food or drink except water) is recommended. Please consult your physician or contact our support team for exact guidelines.

This test measures specific chemical compounds, cellular structures, or hormonal levels in your sample to provide diagnostic indicators for metabolic or systemic health.
Most routine test results are processed and delivered securely to you within 24 to 48 hours from the time of sample collection.
Fasting guidelines depend on the individual biomarkers. It is highly recommended to confirm the requirements with the lab coordinator when booking.

This test is done to measure SHBG, a protein produced mainly by the liver that binds to testosterone and estrogen in the blood. It controls how much of these hormones are biologically active. Abnormal levels may affect fertility, androgen activity, and hormonal balance, and are often evaluated in cases of suspected hormonal disorders.

  • If there are symptoms of hormonal imbalance such as low libido or irregular cycles.
  • If testosterone levels do not match symptoms.
  • If PCOS or androgen excess is suspected.
  • If infertility or reproductive hormone issues are being evaluated.
    • No fasting is required.
    • No special preparation is usually needed.
    • Inform your healthcare provider about hormone therapy or oral contraceptives.
    • Follow any instructions provided by the laboratory or healthcare provider.
